This Christmas season has been exciting as Matthew truly has the holiday spirit. One afternoon the boys heard a noise at the fireplace and when we went over the look, we found a letter from Santa telling all three boys that they had been good this year. Matthew couldn't believe that one of the elves could have climbed up on our roof so quietly and dropped the note down our chimney. There have been other times, where Matthew has shouted, "Look, an elf just ran past our window. They must be checking on us to tell Santa if we are being good."
Matthew and Ryan both went to see Santa this year. Matthew asked Santa for a race track and Ryan a train set. On Christmas eve, we left carrots outside for the reindeer and milk and cookies for Santa. A true Christmas blessing, was all three boys slept in on Christmas until 7am! The boys were so eager to play with each item upon unwrapping that it took us over an hour to open everything! After quiet time, we went over the Nana's to see the rest of the family.
The day after Christmas both Ryan and Connor developed colds. This is the first time that Connor has ever been sick, and it has hit him hard. He and I slept last night sitting up on the couch. My poor baby, he looks at me with these watery, puppy dog eyes and I can only imagine he is thinking "What have you done to me!"
